The Racing Zero has been redesigned for 2017. Now 17mm wide internally, when combined with 25 or 28mm tyres, the rim and tyre form a squarer profile which leads to less drag and better rolling resistance.

The Zero Nite features a “Plasma Electrolytic Oxidation” treated surface for a dark look and superior braking. This is possible thanks to a very fine and compact matrix of alpha and microcrystalline gamma alumina and amorphous alumina embedded on the surface. Thanks to the high hardness of the layer, it presents excellent wear resistance.

There is also a special design for Racing Zero Nite’s braking surface. The design, created by turning, allows superior braking efficiency. Specific blue brake pads should be used with this model.

Extremely impressed done about 300 miles on these wheels so far super stiff and spin up far quicker than any wheel set I've owned previous braking is awesome with supplied pads on the Nite surface and no signs of any of the coating wearing this is my best wheel set so no intention of running it through the winter in the wet and cold

These are fabulous. Straight out of the box they look wonderful, frankly I thought they looked too good to actually use. I still can't bring myself to ride them in the wet! They roll beautifully, spin up very quick and respond to power very briskly. There are probably lighter wheels for climbing but that's being extremely picky. They come with nice looking skewers, wheel bags and some rim specific pads to avoid taking the rim treatment off but really they are fine with any carbon specific pads. I'm using the lifeline ones and have had excellent braking performance paired with ultegra calipers, no squealing. Love them!
